Intel takes computing to the next level with the 7thGen Intel® Core™ processor family. The 7thGen Intel Core processors are designed for the Immersive Internet and built on a strong foundation of the Skylake microarchitecture. Intel’s latest 14nm processors deliver more responsive performance than ever1, fantastic entertainment and gaming, robust security2, and even more natural, intuitive interactions with your PC. With incredible improvements that transform the viewing experience with 4K UHD videos, 360-degree videos , multiple video streams, and premium content playback3, the 7thGen Intel Core processors for mobile platforms enable a new way to enjoy the sharp and engaging content across a range of form factors.

•More than 70 percent4faster mobile productivity than a 5-year-old PC**
•3.5X5better 3D graphics performance than a 5 year old PC**

This means you can
•Create : Beautify 1400 photos in one minute6
•Multitask : Combine multiple 4K UHD videos into a highlight reel in 4 minutes while shopping and watching a movie7
•Game : Play your favorite games, like Overwatch, on-the-go, in HD

Intel scales 7thGen Intel Core processors to a variety of PC designs at a wide range of price points, which may include features such as Thunderbolt™ 3 USB Type-C single-wire connection, low power premium audio and hassle-free facial recognition such as Windows* Hello. Users can also expect to see PC designs based on 7thGen Intel Core processors with a variety of intuitive input options such as touch, voice, and stylus.

Key benefits of the 7thGen Intel® Core™ processor family for mobile and desktop PCs include:

RESPONSIVE PERFORMANCE. 7th Gen Intel Core processors utilize a power-efficient microarchitecture, advanced process technology and silicon optimizations to deliver faster performance than previous generation processors.1** Web browsing is snappy and responsive with Intel® Speed Shift Technology. On processors with Intel® Turbo Boost 2.0 Technology, performance and power is dynamically controlled –for cores and graphics –boosting performance precisely when it is needed, and saving energy when it counts. Both the Y-series and U-series processors support two cores and four threads with Intel® Hyper-Threading Technology (Intel® HT Technology), enabling compelling 2 in 1 designs and thin clamshells that achieve a unique balance between performance and mobility. PCs enabled with Microsoft Windows Modern Standby are able to wake immediately at the push of a button, so users don’t have to wait for their system to start up.

SIMPLICITY AND CONVENIENCE. Notebooks with the versatile Thunderbolt 3 technology, the USB-C that does it all, provide an incredible I/O experience. A single cable conveniently supports up to 40 Gbps transfer speeds, two 4K 60 Hz displays, system charging up to 100W, external graphics, and Thunderbolt networking to bolster productivity. More designs supporting touch, voice and stylus input, intuitive interaction becomes prevalent with 7th Gen Intel Core processors, enabling users to simplify their interactions and unleash their creativity. On notebooks with cameras supporting Windows Hello facial recognition, users are able to securely2log into a PC and websites hassle free.

EXTENDED BATTERY LIFE. With the 7th Gen Intel Core processor family further improving power efficiency at a processor and platform level, 7th Gen Intel Core processor-based systems have longer battery life** and can utilize smaller batteries to enable even thinner and lighter systems.11Dedicated hardware acceleration reduces power consumption dramatically, enabling 3X longer battery life during local 4K video playback.12With the Y-processor family, 2 in 1s and clamshells are reimagined, enabling thin and fanless designs for ultra-mobility. On U-series processors, enhanced productivity and creativity are possible in increasingly slim form factors.
